Given that the slope of a line is 1 3 what is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to it?
If we call the slope m we can say that the slope of the perpendicular line is -1/m In this case as the slope, m, is 13 the slope of the perpendicular is -1/13 or -0.07692307692
Which is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line y equals -2x plus 6?
line in data is y=-2X+6 The perpendicular line will have a slope of = +1/2 Note : m X m' = -1 , m= slope of line 1 ; m'= slope of perpendicular line to line 1
What is m in slope equation of a line?
It is the slope.
Given a line with a slope of 1 7 what is the slope of any line that lies perpendicular to it?
The slope of a line perpendicular to one with slope m is -1/m. So for a line with slope 1/7, any line perpendicular to it will have: slope = -1 / (1/7) = -7
What is the measure of two intersecting perpendicular line?
If you are asking for slope, the slope of one line is m, the slope of the other is -1/m. For example, if the slope for one line is 5, the slope of the other line is -1/5 = -0.2 . (Math Open Reference)
What is the slope of a line perpendicular to a line whose slope is 3?
Slope of a line = m slope of perpendicular line = -1/m
How do you find slope altitude?
If the slope of a line is m then the slope of an altitude to that line is -1/m.
What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to it?
The slope of a line perpendicular to one with a slope of m is -1/m.

In the generalized slope-intercept equation of a line the slope of the line is represented as the coefficient of the variable x?
Your statement is correct. y=mx+b when m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Which is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line y equals -2x plus 6?
line in data is y=-2X+6 The perpendicular line will have a slope of = +1/2 Note : m X m' = -1 , m= slope of line 1 ; m'= slope of perpendicular line to line 1
What is the relationship between slope and a perpendicular line?
If a line has a slope m then a line perpendicular to it has a slope -1/m ( negative inverse). For example if a line has slope positive 2, its perpendicular has slope -1/2
What is m in slope equation of a line?
It is the slope.
Given a line with a slope of 1 7 what is the slope of any line that lies perpendicular to it?
The slope of a line perpendicular to one with slope m is -1/m. So for a line with slope 1/7, any line perpendicular to it will have: slope = -1 / (1/7) = -7
Do perpendicular lines have the same exact slope?
No, parallel lines have exactly same slope Perpendicular line have a slope that is negative reciprocal of each other that is if m = slope of line then slope of perpendicular line is -1/m
If a circle with its centre at the origin has a chord with slope m the equation of the right bisector of the chord is y equals mx is this statement true or false?
False. 1). The proposed equation y=mx suggests that the chord's right bisector has no y-intercept, i.e. passes through the origin. This is interesting, and appears plausible, and I'm willing to acknowledge that this aspect of it is true. But ... 2). If the slope of the chord is 'm', then the slope of its right bisector is not also 'm'. If it were, that would make the chord and its bisector parallel, which would be pretty silly. The slope of any line perpendicular to the chord, including its right bisector, has to be '-1/m'. The equation of the chord's right bisector is: Y = -X/m .

If you are asking for slope, the slope of one line is m, the slope of the other is -1/m. For example, if the slope for one line is 5, the slope of the other line is -1/5 = -0.2 . (Math Open Reference)
